As part of our long term strategy to strengthen service delivery and expand access to occupational healthcare nationwide, CADUCEUS continues to evolve its care delivery model to better align with changing workforce demands and client expectations.

This ongoing approach reflects growth across CADUCEUS TeleMed, our National Clinic Network of 4200+ partner clinics, and our Onsite services, all of which are designed to improve speed and consistency of care no matter where you are located.

In April 2026 alone, 93% of employees evaluated through CADUCEUS were cleared to return to work or remain on the job. This outcome reflects a care model built around timely clinical evaluation, efficient decision making, and a clear focus on minimizing unnecessary disruption to workforce operations.

Meeting Clients Where They Need Care Most

Occupational healthcare continues to shift toward faster, more accessible care delivery. Employers are placing increased emphasis on reducing employee downtime, supporting distributed workforces, and ensuring consistent access to care across locations and schedules.

Industry data reinforces the importance of timely intervention. Employees referred to occupational health while still working are significantly more likely to remain in the workforce, with 91% expected to still be working one month later. That figure decreases to 45% after one month of absence and 27% after six months, highlighting the critical role early access to care plays in long term outcomes.

CADUCEUS supports this need through a care model that emphasizes:

TeleMed clinical evaluations, including injury screening, follow ups, and return-to-work assessments
The National Clinic Network, providing broad geographic coverage and scheduling flexibility
Onsite services, tailored to client workflows and operational demands

This approach enables earlier intervention, faster clinical engagement, and more efficient pathways to care.

Continuity of Care Remains the Priority

CADUCEUS has built its reputation on continuity and reliability while building client partnerships. Those principles continue to guide every aspect of care delivery.

Clients and employees benefit from seamless access to services through:

CADUCEUS TeleMed, offering rapid clinical evaluations, injury care, follow ups, and return-to-work determinations, globally
CADUCEUS clinics and a nationwide network of partner clinics, supporting care access across all 50 states
Onsite services, designed to reduce offsite travel and streamline care delivery directly at the workplace

Across the broader occupational health landscape, a study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) found that 73.5% of employees return to work within 90 days following an injury, with a median of 45 days away from work.

As reflected in recent CADUCEUS performance, a focus on early intervention and rapid access to care can significantly improve return-to-work outcomes.

A Thoughtful, Customized Transition Process

CADUCEUS continues to work closely with clients to refine and optimize care delivery strategies that align with their operational needs.

Support may include:

Implementing TeleMed workflows to reduce time away from work
Leveraging the National Clinic Network to improve access across employee populations
Expanding onsite service capabilities where appropriate
Simplifying scheduling and coordination across teams and locations

This collaborative approach ensures that care delivery remains aligned with both productivity goals and regulatory requirements.

Why This Change Positions Clients for the Future

By focusing on high utilization and flexible service channels, CADUCEUS strengthens its ability to respond quickly, scale efficiently, and deliver consistent care across a broad and diverse workforce.

For clients, this means:

Faster clinical decision making
Reduced employee downtime
Greater flexibility for remote and multi site workforces
Stronger alignment with modern occupational health best practices

Organizations that invest in early intervention and workplace health strategies have seen up to a 20% reduction in absenteeism. By combining immediate access to care with scalable service delivery, CADUCEUS supports both clinical outcomes and measurable operational improvements.

Looking Ahead

As workforce demands continue to evolve, the need for accessible, timely, and reliable occupational healthcare remains critical. CADUCEUS continues to invest in care models that support faster access and improve service continuity with consistent outcomes across all points of care.
